If they lose this game I'm done with Lavy

Who screamed like a girl there?

Is some chocking a chicken wtf was that sound

That has to be the worse interference call i have ever seen.
- Yosimar89

the elbow call for the first PP to the Flyers was just as bad.

i'm ready to see him gone. right now. don't care who they get.

I've seen coaches dired for less than what the flyers have done this year.

exhibit A: Robbie Ftorek for Larry Robinson in March 2000

Putting in Boucher is a dumbass move.

However the way this team came out to play, or has played in the 2nd period has nothing to do with systems. Or what the coach preaches. They came out playing nothing like they did in the first 20.

I see far more than a simple coaching issue. Thats what I am continously getting at.
- flyer_nutter

it's both. the coach isn't helping. imho.

Wtf was that sound???!!!
- FlyerLifer

I think it was Gus.. LMAO so great

neal needs to take a seat. what a crybaby.
- hammarby31

My abhorrence for him knows no bounds

Wtf was that sound???!!!

someone sacrificing a goat to turn this thing around in our favor again

This move is beyond stupid
- Giroux_Is_God

Agreed. I guess it's the "fire up the team" goalie pull.... but pretty dangerous given the situation

You don't think that maybe Laviolette tells them to sit back & protect the lead, rather than keeping the foot on the gas?

After 2

Sault Ste. Marie - 4
Windsor - 5


Alderson - has a goal
Cousins - has an assist

DO you?

not enough BOOS after that period, imo.

how does briere NOT get that shot on goal? HUGE chance to take the lead in the final 30 seconds.

We need Mez back and another Dman immediately.

Is this the same coach who can't help but blow his load during a tight checking Rangers game?

I thought his game was always uptempo, push the pace.

Cuz he's awful.

the elbow call for the first PP to the Flyers was just as bad.
- FlyerGuy

There was a hell of a lot more contact on that then this last "penalty"

Too many Flyers not willing to take a hit to make a play.

That "turnover" by Gus was really Briere not being willing to battle for that puck along the boards imo. He's got to fight for that puck not just wus out and leave it for the Pens player there. If they're not giving the D any safe targets for outlet passes then they have to be willing to battle for those wall passes and get the puck out.

Same goes for the failed dump-ins. Too many times they worried about taking a hit and they half-ass the dump-in attempt and it doesn't get deep.

And I have no idea why they're pulling Bryz. None of those were bad goals, and Boucher is not exactly confidence inspiring.

i was just saying he's not battling for ANYTHING

and i never want to see bruno gervais again

I have no idea.

Either way they didnt protect the lead or keep the foot on the gas. Just like the NY game they lost battle after battle. Even when they had the Pens outnumbered.

This team has an inability to work hard for an extended amount of time.

I am starting to lean more toward him being fired. Not because that is what I am advocating but that is what I see happening. The Flyers simply suck ass in the own zone. Lose battle after battle.

I'd be making sounds like that if Bruno Gervais was my D partner.

He's not in the playoffs

You should be use to this the Flyers also take a period off.
